For a while there, peaches -- good peaches -- were hard to find in Florida. We're crazy about peaches and have been known, on occasion, to drive three hours to the Georgia border just to purchase organic summer peaches from a roadside stand.
This was the first year we didn't make the drive. Because. Florida delivered the most beautiful, organic peaches to us this year, grown just a few miles from our home. I recently had the pleasure of cooking with these juicy jewels during a demo at Leu Gardens, where I featured a sweet and spicy peach salsa cruda. And I can't wait to try the peach crumble-cobbler with the bushel of local peaches I have sitting right next to me as I write.
What's your favorite way to cook with summer peaches? (and if you've ever driven as far as we did to get them, fess up!)

I absolutely love peaches but have had such a hard time finding good ones the last couple years! Where can I get my hands on some?
I love peaches in cottage cheese and soaked in red wine :) learned the wine one from my grandpa.
Hi Aggie - the audubon market and local co-op had organic peaches grown in Florida, and when those run out, Whole Foods has been bringing in organic peaches from Georgia.
